The Iberic Diaspora refers to the various ethnic groups previously native to the former [[Iberic Empire]] in southern [[Europa]] whose members have since resettled around [[Eurth]]. The diaspora was triggered first by the events of the [[Malcisma]] a series of revolts which caused the collpase of the Iberic Empire. Throughout history, subsequent migrations starting with the [[Gran Viatge]] caused Iberic and Iberic-creole groups to populate most regions on Eurth.

==Origin==
The term "Iberic" refers to a collection of nations descended from Aroman and Lewanic populations which settled in the Iberic river valley in waves from the Neolithic era up to the early Medieval era. Following the introduction of petty kingdoms- and later sophisticated feudal and monarchic systems, these Aroman-Lewanic people became confederated under the Kingdom of Leonia.

The nations that made up the Iberic empire would retain some individuality. Despite the commonality in phonetics, some cultural aspects, and a shared fealty, the nations retained noticably different languages, customs, and physical characteristcs.

The Argonese, like the Leonids, Tacalans, and (too a lesser degree) the Stillians maintained a high affinity for Aroman language and culture. Much of the Aroman descended Iberics populated the northern, eastern, and southeastern coastal areas.

===Leonids===
===Leonese===
Native to the north side of the Iberic River Valley, the Leonids were a tribe directly descended from the Lewanic peoples in the north. During the Aroman Empire's entry into the region, they quickly integrated politically and culturally. Though strongly Aromanised, many Leonid names and traditions still bore similarities with their Lewanic origin. Through the unification of kingdoms, the Leonids became the progenitor nation for the paternal imperial bloodline.

===Navaerrese===

Originated from the Kingdom of Navarosso, not to be confused with the Narvic province of Navaerre in Iverica.


===Stillians===
===Stillians===
Native to the western valley of the Iberic Empire, the Stillians were a Lewanic tribe exposed to a variety of different cultures. The Stillian people were influenced by early Italic, Aroman, Amutian cultures. In the early medieval period, the Stillians would come to be influenced by the occupation of a Sa Harabic culture from a Moorish offshoot.

===Tacalans===
===Tacalans===
Native to the coastal south of the empire, the Tacalans were of a mostly Italic tribe that dominated the sothern regions as the Lewnic peoples became pocketed in the central river valley. Gradually, the Tacalans would become more and more integrated with the Argonese to their north- eventually unifying with them in the early medieval era. The Tacalans were a sailing, trading and fishing culture, whose commerce and influence allowed them to reach and maintain a high population beginning in the iron age.

===Solidaridad Identity===
===Solidaridad Identity===
Iberic ''Solidaridad'' (Anglish: Solidarity) is an abstract ethno-cultural idea which posits the moral virtue of a united international Iberic diaspora community. Most commonly, the term is applied to the context of an individual, a community, or a nationstate. In the case of states, Solidaridad status typically refers to diaspora states which are populated by an ethnic majority of one or more of the Imperial Iberic nations or any creole derivative. Together, they recognise and form an ethnocultural sphere of Iberic derivative speaking states who recognise their common ancestry and work to preserve shared history and heritage. Iberic influence can be observed in the linguistic, religious, cultural, and political systems shared by many of its descendant colonies. As of 2020 there are approximately 176 million people on Eurth who recognise their Solidaridad descent.

It is important to note that the Solidaridad concept did not start with Acussar's publication. Earlier mentions in various colonial publications in a multitude of diaspora communities mentioned the strong desire for closer ties. Normally referenced in the context of a hostile native atmosphere [citation needed].

Dei Acussar's publication nevertheless popularised it as it was cited several more times throughout the following years both formally and informally [citation needed]. Eventually, in 1901, the idea was internalised by the [[Government_of_Iverica#The_National_Chamber|Iverican National Chamber]] in an Act of the Republic [number] which amended the mission statement of the Iverican Ministry of Foreign Affairs to include the preservation and affirmation of the Solidaridad Identity. In addition to referencing Dei Acussar, the Act also defined that Solidaridad would also entail:

Stipulations were included that an individual might automatically be qualified if they possess proof that one ancestor, paternal or maternal, was a documented full-blooded member of an Imperial Iberic nation. Failing that, an individual might apply for Solidaridad status if they were third-generation citizens of an Iberic diaspora nation- in which case a written language test and complete documentation would be required.

===Madrian-Fulgistani===
The Madrians in the Worker's Republic of [[Fulgistan]] are a Stillian-descended diaspora group hailing directly from [[Mauridiviah]]. Originally composed of merchantmen and their dependents, the Madrians were quartered in the port city of Wulumuqi in the late 19th century. As of 2020, there are an estimated 100,000 Fulgistani citizens claiming Madrian descent.
 
The Fulgistani navy maintains an infantry regiment, ''Il Regimiento de los Madrianos'' composed mostly of Madrian volunteers.

The Iberic Diaspora refers to the various ethnic groups previously native to the former Iberic Empire in southern Europa whose members have since resettled around the continents of Eurth. The diaspora was triggered first by the events of the Malcisma, a series of revolts which caused the collpase of the Iberic Empire. Throughout history, subsequent migrations starting with the Gran Viatge caused Iberic and Iberic-creole groups to populate most regions on Eurth.

Notable diaspora nations include Iverica, Mauridiviah, Pecario, The Duchy of Verde, Narva, Vasqqa, and Galicia.

Origin

The term "Iberic" refers to a collection of nations descended from Aroman and Lewanic populations, which settled in the Iberic river valley in waves from the Neolithic era up to the early Medieval era. Following the introduction of petty kingdoms- and later sophisticated feudal and monarchic systems, these Aroman-Lewanic people became confederated under the Kingdom of Leonia.

The nations that made up the Iberic empire would retain some individuality. Despite the commonality in phonetics, some cultural aspects, and a shared fealty, the nations retained noticeably different languages, customs, and physical characteristics.

Precolonial Iberic Nations

Argonese

Native to the Iberic Northeast; would later unify with the Tacalans when the Tacalan Royal house would intermarry with the Leonid Imperial line.

The Argonese, like the Leonids, Tacalans, and (to a lesser degree) the Stillians maintained a high affinity for Aroman language and culture. Much of the Aroman descended Iberics populated the northern, eastern, and southeastern coastal areas.

Leonese

Also referred to as "Leonids" in other scholarship and Leones in most Iberic languages; native to the north side of the Iberic River Valley, the Leonids were a tribe directly descended from the Lewanic peoples in the north. During the Aroman Empire's entry into the region, they quickly integrated politically and culturally. Though strongly Aromanised, many Leonid names and traditions still bore similarities with their Lewanic origin. Through the unification of kingdoms, the Leonids became the progenitor nation for the paternal imperial bloodline.

Navarense

Native to the northern highlands of the Iberic Empire, the Navaernse were an Italo-Lewanid nation that remained fiercely independent until being forced to terms by the expanding Leonids during the Unification Wars. Originated from the Kingdom of Navarosso, not to be confused with the Narvic province of Navaerre in Iverica.

Stillians

Native to the western valley of the Iberic Empire, the Stillians were a Lewanic tribe exposed to a variety of different cultures. The Stillian people were influenced by early Italic, Aroman, Amutian cultures. In the early medieval period, the Stillians would come to be influenced by the occupation of a Sa Harabic culture from a !Moorish offshoot.

Tacalans

Native to the coastal south of the empire, the Tacalans were of a mostly Italic tribe that dominated the southern regions as the Lewanic peoples became pocketed in the central river valley. Gradually, the Tacalans would become more and more integrated with the Argonese to their north- eventually unifying with them in the early medieval era. The Tacalans were a sailing, trading and fishing culture, whose commerce and influence allowed them to reach and maintain a high population beginning in the Iron Age.

Solidaridad Identity

Iberic Solidaridad (Anglish: Solidarity) is an abstract ethnocultural idea which posits the moral virtue of a united international Iberic diaspora community. Most commonly, the term is applied to the context of an individual, a community, or a nation-state. In the case of states, Solidaridad status typically refers to diaspora states which are populated by an ethnic majority of one or more of the Imperial Iberic nations or any creole derivative. Together, they recognise and form an ethnocultural sphere of Iberic derivative speaking states who recognise their common ancestry and work to preserve shared history and heritage. Iberic influence can be observed in the linguistic, religious, cultural, and political systems shared by many of its descendant colonies. As of 2020, there are approximately 182.3 million people on Eurth who recognise their Solidaridad descent.

In 1881, Iverican Anthropologist and Philosopher Alberto Marquess Dei Acussar defined Solidaridad in the University of Toledo's Plaridel publication, the then official university journal for social sciences, under the university's School of the Humanities. Dei Acussar defined Solidarity as:

an identity accepted by choosing that way of life and society that is common to other Iberics- that identity which every Iberic relates to as he has been born into it, formed by it and accepts it...

Dei Acussar elaborated with specifics, claiming that:

The Solidaridad identity is the identification with an Iberic community; being born into one, accepted by one, and living in the manner of one.

Speaking an Iberic language or dialect, keeping reverence for Iberic tradition, and active desire to preserve an Iberic way of life in the New Wurld were defined by Acussar as traits of a Solidaridad community.

It is important to note that the Solidaridad concept did not start with Acussar's publication. Earlier mentions in various colonial publications in a multitude of diaspora communities mentioned the strong desire for closer ties. Normally referenced in the context of a hostile native atmosphere.[citation needed]

Dei Acussar's publication nevertheless popularised it as it was cited several more times throughout the following years both formally and informally.[citation needed] Eventually, in 1901, the idea was internalised by the Iverican National Chamber in an Act of the Republic [number] which amended the mission statement of the Iverican Ministry of Foreign Affairs to include the preservation and affirmation of the Solidaridad Identity. In addition to referencing Dei Acussar, the Act also defined that Solidaridad would also entail:

not discriminant of mixed race; but rather by choice of loyalty and society; so that any individual, ethnic Iberic or not, may live as a one.

Stipulations were included that an individual might automatically be qualified if they possess proof that one ancestor, paternal or maternal, was a documented full-blooded member of an Imperial Iberic nation. Failing that, an individual might apply for Solidaridad status if they were third-generation citizens of an Iberic diaspora nation- in which case a written language test and complete documentation would be required.

Today, states such as the Republic of Iverica maintain policies which allow for Solidaridad status individuals a more expedient track into immigration and easier access to certain visas.

Madrian-Fulgistani

The Madrians in the Worker's Republic of Fulgistan are a Stillian-descended diaspora group hailing directly from Mauridiviah. Originally composed of merchantmen and their dependents, the Madrians were quartered in the port city of Wulumuqi in the late 19th century. As of 2020, there are an estimated 100,000 Fulgistani citizens claiming Madrian descent.

The Fulgistani navy maintains an infantry regiment, Il Regimiento de los Madrianos composed mostly of Madrian volunteers.
